Linking Talwandi Sabo by rail is a welcome step : Jeet Mohinder Sidhu

Bathinda: I thank the Railway Minister Shri Pawan Kumar Bansal Ji for the proposal to link Rama Mandi with Maur Mandi via Talwandi Sabo. This is a historic decision for the people of Punjab as it will be for the first time that Takht Damdama Sahib at Talwandi Sabo will be linked with the other four Takhts of the Sikh religion located in various parts of the country.

People of Punjab in general and Talwandi Sabo in particular thank the railway minister and feel proud of him for his decision to link the historically and religiously important place like Talwandi Sabo (Damdama Sahib) with all the four Takhts.

After the rail link is completed all the five Takhts will directly be interlinked through the rail line and this will also pave the way for running special pilgrimage trains connecting these Takhts.

This rail link will give a much needed boost to the economy and prosperity of the region and Talwandi Sabo in particular.

I as the representative of the people of Talwandi Sabo express my sincere and heartfelt gratitude to the Railway Minister for this historic decision.
